Yeltsin (former President of Russia) provided Abramovich (owner of Chelsea) with protection from prosecution for various criminal activities ranging from stealing diesel fuel to illegally acquiring Sibneft (biggest oil producer in Russia) when the USSR fell apart in the 1990s.

Ever wondered why Abramovich lives in Britain?

Because he would be imprisoned for criminal activity like his other oligarch chum, Hodorkovski (who is imprisoned for life). Neither does Abramovich give to charity, his billions are stolen. Fact.

Apart from that, i am an Arsenal fan so Chelsea and Spurs are our biggest rivals!

I understand that the Smiths / Morrissey may not be everyone’s cup of tea but what does middle of the road easy listening pap Coldplay bring to the table?

Morrissey is described as a “Wordsmith of no equal” by Michael Stipe, they have influenced every major British band since the eighties and Johnny Marr is currently at number one in the US Album charts.

Sanctimonious multimillionaire Chris Martin and his multimillionaire celebrity wife preach to us about world debt and fair trade like a poor mans Bono, release music that is the blandest on the planet (with the exception of James Blunt) that is no more than lowest common denominator unchallenging muzak to sell in bulk to the middle aged and undemanding Americans.

It would not surprise me to find out that they gave there daughter a ridiculous name as part of a sponsorship tie in because she would then become a tax deductible expense.

It just goes to show that the middle classes and music just don’t mix, with the Rolling Stones being the exception that proves the rule.
